Flat Bread

This flat bread is one of the easiest breads to make. Once it's risen, it just takes about 20 minutes in the oven. It should be called fast bread. If you invest in a little time for the dough to rise you get a really nice, soft bread. If you look on the store bought bread, there is an array of ingredients nobody can even pronounce. Bread should only have flour, yeast, salt, sugar and water in it. Of course you can mix in, or top it with all kinds of great things like nuts, sesame seeds oats, dried fruits or even cheese. There is no limit to your imagination when it comes to what you want to mix in your bread.

I dare you to try this one. Delicious!

Flat Bread:

3 1/2 cups flour
1 tsp. salt
1 pkg. dry yeast
1 2/3 cups warm water
sesame seeds for topping
1-2 tbs. olive oil 

Dissolve the yeast  and sugar in the warm water. when the yeast begins to foam, you know it's active and you can add the flour and the salt. ( If the yeast does not foam after a while, the yeast is not active and your bread will not rise.)
Knead until you have a soft but not sticky dough. I keep the flour at hand, that way I can add a little at the time in case the dough is sticky.
Cover and let it rise until double in size.
Once the dough has risen, you can punch it down and divide in two parts.

Take a parchment lined ( you can also just grease the sheet ) baking sheet and form two flat, round breads. Brush them with a bit of olive oil and sprinkle the sesame seeds on top.
Now you can let then rest again until they are again double in size.

Preheat your oven to 440F ( 220C )  Bake for about 10 minutes, flip on the other side and bake for another 10 minutes or until its nice and golden brown in color.
